slydog: Bro, I feel you. Let me narrate my experience on this with you. I also started banking at your age, I had a very sweet girlfriend who was a corper at the period. She was all over me for marriage, talking about settling down, trust me she was no gold digger as she was also well to do. I ditched or dumped cos I was scared of settling down, I thought with my small pay this babe wanna tie me down, o thought this was the best time for flexing your own money, clubbing etc Bro, today the babe is married, lives in Texas. Last week she posted the pic of her baby girl, and I liked it on fb, babe called me tru fb call and told me I should have been the father. I was four years in banking last December bro and am not married. I regret not settling down three years ago. The money I thought was small thatvman needs to find more money, bro the money is still the same, hard to find true love at this stage vos you really can't tell of she likes your car your house or anything. So I'll advise you, if your gal is serious and believes in you and her dream, I feel you shouldn't wait for next two years, pls do it next year.
Do you live with your parents? If you do trying getting a house, or save towards that, you mustn't really even get the house until next year. I want you to be focused on what you want to do, I also want you to think of your exit plan out of the bank as well, give yourself a timeline like I did, I gave myself not more than five years in the banking industry, December this year will be my fifth year, and I hope to have graduated with my PhD and leave the industry by then. Don't be deceived by society that you not ready, the difference BTW you and me four years ago is I wasn't thinking of it, here you are already thinking of marriage, push it bro. You must also have a big wedding if you feel money might be an issue, a traditional wedding and court registry is OK bro, better to start small within your means than try to impress society. Like I always tell people, the earlier the better is good in everything. Bro, this is priceless, this is exactly what I wanted and it's awesome coming from someone that has walked down that lane before. Her parents are well to do, so it's a bit of less pressure. Her family and mine are also in full support of this. You really have made lots of sense. I have PM'ed you, kindly respond so we can chat offline I need to ask a question or two. Cheers. |

Mimzyy: IMO, there is no right or wrong age. You can choose to wait until you are in your thirties/fourties and still not get it right. It all boils down to the maturity/understanding level of the intending couple.
- You need to consider the sustainability of your present salary to cover up the family needs once you get married. You need to understand that once you walk down the aisle with her, she becomes your responsibility. Though, it is more advisable for her to be independent (have an average paying job or it's equivalent).
- You also need to ask yourself if you are mentally ready for marriage as it is a life term contract. God hates divorce!
- You also need to understand that there are times when you will be pushed to the wall and you will feel like calling it quits, at this stage,your endurance level should be very high.
- An apartment of your own is also important.
- You need to learn how to say sorry for something you did not do wrong. (being sarcastic here). Thanks dear, it feels good getting this from a lady. I have grasped a thing or two. ... Lol at the last statement, that one go hard.  |

SalomonKane: Frankly, I'd tell you to focus more on building your life, your character and attitude and forget about marriage.
Marriage as you may see it is not for kids, and at 24, you're still young. The person you want to marry is 20. You guys are still too young. Thanks a lot Solomon, however I didn't say I wanted to get married now, I said 2 years from now. What am concerned about now are the priorities and stuffs I have to put in place (sort of a todo list). Thanks once again. |

Ok, so I created this topic in this section because am sure I would get mature and useful advice here.
I am currently 2. employed in the banking industry and dating a 2. year old lady. I plan on settling down 2 years from now, but I know there are things that needs to be in place before this happens.
My question here is what are the priorities and major necessities that one must have in place to actualize this. I have mine but I need neutral opinions. This thought was triggered after a discussion I had with my girlfriend.

Romance › If Your Girlfriend Drinks, She’s Most Likely Cheating On You by Mannylex(op): 8:48am On Nov 16, 2016 |
It is a scientific fact that most women have a lower tolerance to alcohol than men. Women are generally affected by alcohol more because they tend to have a higher proportion of body fat. As fat cannot absorb alcohol, it is concentrated at higher levels in the blood. Women also have less dehydrogenase, a gastric enzyme that metabolizes or breaks down alcohol before it enters the bloodstream. Because of this, women absorb up to nearly 30% more alcohol into their bloodstream than men of the same height and weight who drink the same amount of alcohol. Women are also usually shorter and lighter than men, further concentrating alcohol in their blood. Therefore, when women of average size consume one drink, it will have almost the same effect as two drinks do for the average-size man. So what does this all mean? If your girlfriend goes out and drinks alcohol, you are most likely getting cheated on. Women by nature are predetermined in their D.N.A to get pregnant and reproduce, and until they reach menopause they need a constant supply of penis to provide fertility. Your girlfriend might prefer your penis, but once the alcohol kicks in and she is inebriated, your penis is useless. Out of site, out of mind (but full of semen). In my entire life I have never met a women who was out drinking and didn’t cheat on her boyfriend. This is my rule of thumb: One drink: Talking to a guy (harmless). Two drinks: Talking very close (borderline kiss close). Three drinks: Makeout session. Four drinks: Makeout session and a feel up. Five drinks: Bathroom Mouth Gig. Six drinks: Hotel or backseat of the car. The few drinking exceptions for women include weddings, work parties, birthday parties with male friends, and suicide attempts. Hormone changes during the menstrual cycle can also affect alcohol metabolism adversely, increasing the impact of alcohol. Cheers! http://mattforney.com/girlfriend-drinks-shes-cheating/ |
